lyrics

After all this time
It’s finally dawned on me
Gotta let go to let in
To let loose to let be
Can’t do nothing about it
So give in to the sound
It fills the air that surrounds us
Culls you from the ground
Culls you from the ground

Somewhere past the horizon
Past their eyes so critically
It’s merely illusion
And I want you to dream with me
There’s no they anyway
Or so far as I can see
Joy and sorrow walking hand in hand
Let your waves wash over me
I surrender to your sea

Pressures of temptation
Are far too great to bear
It’s not so tragic
But I fear that I might care
As the planets all align
Feel that now might be the time
I’ve got a notion
But how can I be sure?
How can I be sure?
How can I be sure?
How can I be sure?
